Why they remove the fan????

[@riaanlouw1874]

Didn't you watch the video ? Obviously to REPLACE the installed fan, with a higher capacity fan (Wattage), as carrying a trailer load, will affect the engine cooling, hence you need more cooling, hence a bigger capacity cooling fan (Without actually replacing the radiator itself)

Hi, my car has done 300,000 miles on Mercedes 5w40 oil. Can I now change the viscosity to 20w50? Engine type: M273 W212 8v

[@emilmoe92]

No. The oil pump is not built for other viscosities than the specifications recommended to the car

[@abdbach379]

You can change to 10w40 and not higher unless you live in an extremely hot environment then maybe 10w50 is fine.
